Bristol's Most Desirable Waterfront Development BRISTOL’S MOST DESIRABLE WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT The final phase of Harbourside, FIND Y UR PERFECT PLACE the destination development that has transformed Bristol’s waterfront, is now here. IT IS INVICTA. This is the final opportunity to buy at the award-winning Harbourside development, where Crest Nicholson is now offering a range of stylish contemporary studio suites, 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments. Most have private balconies and some have a roof terrace. The location is as stunning as the building, facing the Millennium Promenade and overlooking the Floating Harbour and Porto Quay. Invicta is therefore at the very heart of all that Harbourside has to offer. The name Invicta has been chosen to celebrate Bristol’s historic trading links with the Portuguese city of Porto, an exporter of port wine since the early eighteenth century. In 1823, Porto also earned the accolade ‘cidade invicta’ – the unvanquished city – after holding out against a long siege. Nearly 200 years later, Invicta creates another link in the story of Bristol’s dynamic maritime past, as Harbourside grows and continues to play its role in the resurgence of the city’s waterfront.

The water taxi service stops at Harbour Inlet and will take you to the city centre, Cabot Circus or Bristol Temple Meads station. The harbour ferry also has a landing stage at Harbourside and from there you’ll quickly reach Temple Meads station, Cabot Square, and the city centre. It’s a refreshingly different way to commute. Bus operator First Group has a network of routes around the city and the bus stops can be found on Anchor Road, a few minutes’ walk from Harbourside. From Bristol Temple Meads station, reachable by harbour ferry or within about 20 minutes’ walk, typical journey times* include Bath Spa in 11 minutes, Swindon in 40 minutes, Birmingham New Street in 1 hour 26 minutes and London Paddington in 1 hour 40 minutes. South of the city is Bristol Airport, which can also be accessed by train direct from Temple Meads station in around 30 minutes.

  • Honey Bees on Campus, Student Volunteers, Music, Debates, Talks
    Honey bees on campus, student volunteers, music, debates, talks, conferences, and online learning are just some of the initiatives UWE Bristol created for Bristol 2015 as the European Green Capital. Hundreds of students became Green Leaders identifying, developing and supporting sustainability projects, tapping into the enthusiasm of students to create change, and offering them the opportunity to learn and develop new skills and knowledge through activities and events. Laura-Kate Howells, Coordinator of the Green Team in the Students’ Union at UWE said, “We now have our own bee hive with around 60,000 happy and healthy European honey bees. We are inspiring change through promoting re-useable tote bags on Campus, designed by student Maelle Falguieres, and we have successfully campaigned for a reduction in the number of disposable plastic cups used on Campus. Through our Greener Futures Certificate we are encouraging student led clubs and societies to apply sustainable principles. On Monday 26 January our new campaign, Change for Change was launched, where students can apply for funds to start projects, ideas or events to make positive environmental or social change.” Hundreds of students offered their knowledge and skills to sustainable projects in the city over the year; some students became Green Interns supporting businesses in Bristol and Green Ambassadors supported sustainability in partner primary schools. Professor Paul Hoggett discussed the emotional and political dimensions of climate change denial in 'Haunted by the future: the Shadow of Climate Change' on 22 January. Professor Hoggett questioned whether we are only too ready to be deceived and reassured by the interests of the fossil fuel industries and reactionary populism (Tea Party, UKIP) which tell us that climate change either doesn't exist or has been greatly exaggerated.
